[quote=Anonymous]We personally know a (beloved) DCPS teacher whose child did not make it off the waitlist for the school where she worked, and consequently her child is enrolled at a school she ranked lower on her lottery form. Her boss/principal followed the lottery and waitlist rules strictly (the family lives out-of-bounds and so all the IB families were ahead of them). That said we are currently at a DCPS school where it is obvious teacher's kids get preference (there is just statistically no way those teachers were all that "lucky."). I'm not sure if it matters what the official "policy" is if whatever "policy" may exist is not being implemented consistently. So a better question is how is it handled at the school you are trying to get into. You could complain that these inconsistencies are unfair (and I would agree with you), but I don't think it is the type of thing that is going to get the attention of the front office.[/quote]
